FAQ
Common questions about app development
How much does it cost to build an app?
It varies widely based on scope. A lean MVP with core features typically starts in the mid five figures. A full product with auth, payments, dashboards and integrations will be more. We scope every project before quoting so you know exactly what you are getting.
How long does it take to build an MVP?
Most MVPs are ready to launch within 6 to 12 weeks. We prioritize ruthlessly - building only what is needed to validate your product before adding complexity.
Do you do ongoing maintenance after launch?
Yes - our Full App tier includes managed hosting, uptime monitoring, automated deployments and incident response. You focus on the business while we keep the lights on.
What tech stack do you use?
We pick the right tool for the job. Typical stacks include Cloudflare Workers for serverless APIs, React or Astro for the frontend, and Postgres or D1 for data. For larger workloads we use Spring Boot, Kafka and Kubernetes.
Can you work with our existing codebase?
Yes. We do greenfield builds, but we also take over and extend existing products. Get in touch and we can assess what you have.
Do you help with product strategy and scoping?
Yes - we start every project with a discovery phase to understand your goals, constraints and users. Good scoping upfront saves a lot of time and money down the road.
